  • "The Marv series is perfect for little ones at that stage between picture books and wordy chapter books... Easy, fun and engaging." - Lucy Bannerman, The Times
  • "Fast paced, fun and with a lesson about jealousy, this fifth of Marv's challenging adventures shows him at his invincible marvellous best (almost all of the time)." - Jill Bennett, Red Reading Hub
  • "A fast-paced plant-based adventure story with important central messages about accepting defeat with grace and being a good friend." - Children's Books Ireland
  • "Packed full of illustrations that accompany the action and the story contains themes of friendship, forgiveness as well as endless determination." - Books for Topics
  • "Once again this super-hero story is super-fun and super-readable. Illustrator Paula Bowles has particular fun drawing enormous Venus Flytraps!" - Andrea Reece, LoveReading4Kids
  • "The story content is one that will easily connect with this age group of 6 years and above, as most children will have taken part in some type of school competition before. Marvin, the main character, exudes passion, drive, determination, commitment and dedication; wonderful characteristics for children to observe and all values that we wish them to grow up with." - Just Imagine
